    You probably don't remember but I saw you outside the tube stop after the marathon and gave you a quick congrats for completing it as I didn't want to bother you. This is an amazing achievement mate, great stuff!

    Im 23 years old and had acl and meniscus surgery after playing competitive sports for over 5 years. I’m currently 2 weeks into recovery and the progress is slow and painful, nothing like I had expected it to be. Being so dependent on the people around you makes you so grateful for those who care about you and for the independence you normally have. It’s crazy how much I can relate to you and how motivating it is for me to watch you go through this and make it through like you did. Expected recovery is 8 to 12 months, it’s scary to think about it now and to think about all the difficult times to come during recovery. But watching this makes me want to do the “walk with me” (50km for charity) I did just over a year ago so badly again and I hope to walk it in 2024, that’s now my goal and I hope, that I, just like yourself, will be able to make it happen. Thanks Theo for the motivation and congratulations on the amazing achievement. I hope you play again in the sidemen charity match which I watched you play live last time. Keep up the hard work and best wishes for your future football days!

      I’ve just turned 15 and currently 3 months after having an acl reconstruction and meniscus repair. I remember tearing it at 14 and crying for a long time because it seemed like I would never play sport again. For the first 6 weeks it was very painful but slowing I’m starting to make a slow return back to football. If I was to give 1 bit of advice even though I’m a lot younger than you would be to not give up, there will be times when it feels like progress is minimal but you will get there eventually 💪

      my ex had ACL surgery a couple years back and within a year was back to playing college ball within a year, you'll get there in no time! trust the process and make sure to take care of your mental health throughout, jumping over psychological barriers was her biggest hurdle. best of luck with your recovery!!

    love the video theo keep up the good work. I had a similar thing where after hernia surgery the doctor said I would be back playing football in 8 weeks whereas it actually took 6 months, it's annoying when doctors put that in your head, but at least gotta be grateful that I had the surgery.
